- 21 -
(b) |
the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Holdco Shareholders Agreement that are applicable to Pelawan or the Pelawan Trust, shall apply to the Qualified Purchaser. |
(4) In the event of an Initial Period Breach and the failure by RPM for whatever reason to exercise in a timely manner its rights in terms of Section 5 of Schedule 2 [BEE Principles and Pre-Emptive Rights] of the Holdco Shareholders Agreement, then Sections 6.05(1) to 6.05(3) (both inclusive) shall have no further application in respect of such Initial Period Breach.
